    Can you two stay in Guate and never leave!! Please..😫🙏🏽😅. I love the content you have done in guate. And there are many many places you two can still go visit. I hope you can stay a bit longer. 👋🏽

      Thank you for the invite to stay!! We are so lucky to have spent so long here. It is a real privilege to spend so much time in a country we are not citizens in. We still have more time here thankfully, but eventually we will have to go to a new country 😩

    El cerro con forma de elefante se llama Cerro de Oro. En el libro de El Principito también aparecen 3 volcanes que están inspirados en los tres volcanes del lago de Atitlán y los tres volcanes de Antigua.

    2:41 I hate when people try to over charge tourists. When I was in Guatemala and I found gringos I always told them the prices so they don’t get overcharged, for me that is rude. Trying to take advantage of others in any country it’s not cool.

    • @nicoleandmico
      @nicoleandmico  Місяць тому +1

      We really appreciate it when locals do that! To be honest it’s not really the price that bothers us, it’s just the intentional deceit and trying to trick us. That part really gets us 😔 We appreciate it when we hear recommendations and honest info like you give so thank you so much!

    Your videos are very inspiring and thoughtful on the locals! For me San Juan has grown on the past 4 to 6 years to become a lot more open to tourism. Before that the town felt much more authenthic, super closed comunity and a truer and less of a trurist trap kind of place, I miss that San Juan, but so glad to see economic growth for the locals.

    • @nicoleandmico

    It's so funny how I discovered you guys right after deciding to head to Guatemala myself for a couple months in Jan.
    I've been able to plan places to go as a solo traveler because you've eased some concerns...so thanks!
    To add: I just booked a place in Lake Atitlan 😊
    I had a question. Where did you get the guide in San Juan? Do you guys use an app to find local guides?
    Back to my SkyFlakes crackers and cheese 😋

      I love that the timing of you finding us and booking your own Guatemala trip has worked out so well! I bet you will love Lake Atitlan! It just has a kind of magic to it 🤩
      Our guide in San Juan was all booked through 10Adventures, same as the kayaking and hiking :)

    Hi guys , I’m so happy that you guys are enjoying my country so much. Fun fact , these is a big controversy controversy involving the book, the little prince, Salvadoran people claim their country is the inspiration for the book, just because the writer was married to a Salvadoran lady. They were heading to El Salvador ,but had to land in Guatemala because mechanical issues with the plane. They ended staying in Guatemala for a long period. Mostly in atitlan and Antigua. So there is the controversy , we claim is our country the inspiration for the book, we’ll never know!😃. Safe travels guys!

    I was waiting your next video of Lake Atitlán. Is good to see that you both are learning about the culture around the towns of the lake. Each one is a little different, but each one has something to learn about. I hope you and Evie 🐕🥰 still having a good time here in Guatemala. Wish your next destination still here in Guatemala. I recommend you in Cobán Semuc Champey, Waterfall Sachichaj, Hun Nal Ye Reserve, Lachua Lagoon. Or in Petén archaeological park Tikal and Yaxha, Chechenal Beach, Tres Naciones Beach, Flores Island (this one for winter is a little flooded 😢), Cráter Azul. I apologize for the men that charge you more of the price, i don't know why he do that 😡. Hugs for Evie, please.

    I am from Guatemala and I have really enjoyed your videos. I think they praise the natural beauty and the unmatched hospitality of the Guatemalans. I think you don't go to the typical places where tourists go, I think you prefer to show more indigenous places and get to know more about the locals. I would like you not to leave Guatemala without visiting Tikal, Uaxactún and El Mirador in Petén, the latter being the place where the pyramid with the largest volume in the world is located. You should also visit Río Dulce, Livingston and the Castillo de San Felipe in Izabal. Additionally, Alta Verapaz, Quiché and Huehuetenango. I think you should contact the National Institute of Tourism with the director, Harris Whitbeck, who worked at CNN and who will be pleased to facilitate these transfers, due to the good material you upload on UA-cam and how well you promote our country.

    As a Guatemalan I recommend you Semuc Champey, Biotopo del Quetzal, Coban, Quirigua, Rio Dulce (Castillo San Felipe), Livingston, Isla de Flores, Tikal, El Mirador. Try to avoid Guatemala City like the plague 😂 nothing good there.
